Except for a few brief stints in Mammoth Lakes and Long Beach I have been living continuously in Surfside and Seal Beach. I constructed my current residence at B66 in Surfside in 2007 and have been there since. I actually rented an apartment in Seal Beach from 1981 -1982.

I am also on the Board of Directors for Surfside Colony. Work History: I am the President of Coultrup Consultants, Inc., a real estate, development and construction management firm that specializes in government entitlement of new projects. For the last five years we have worked primarily on condominium conversions throughout Southern California with the bulk of our work in Long Beach.

I have been in the process from the beginning Preliminary Planning stage through CUP submittals through Tentative & Final Maps and, of course, pulling building permits. My work on the Surfside Board has given me exposure to the workings of the Coastal Commission and the Local Coastal Plan.

I have an enormous fondness for Seal Beach, and would like to see it continue to be the nicest neighborhood around. To date, I have committed significant time and resources to have, what I have been told, is the first LEEDs building in Seal Beach. Sincerely, Robert Girardi September 9, 2009 To Whom It May Concern: My name is Bonnie Gasior, and I am interested in forming part of the Ad Hoc General Plan/Local Coast Plan Citizens Advisory Committee. This position was brought to my attention by my former student Mr. David Sloan, who now is an elected official in Seal Beach. Although I have little experience in formal politics, my job requires me to be on several high- profile committees that are vital to my profession. I am an Associate Professor of Spanish Literature at California State University, Long Beach. Anyone who knows anything about higher education knows that professors must "serve" the university in many ways. One of those ways is through committee work. Over the years, I have been elected to numerous, important committees. I believe this attests to my collegiality, work ethic, cooperativeness, and effectiveness. For example, I have served on the CLA Curriculum Committee. This committee met twice a month for two hours to discuss and vote on new course proposals within the college. This year, I was elected to the Sabbatical Leave Committee, which selects the most competitive sabbatical proposals from and makes awards to professors in the college. I have also served on two Search Committees (2004, 2008) in my department, functioning as Chair both times. A Search Committee is formed when a new hire is made. We look through roughly 200 applications, make spreadsheets, interview candidates at a convention and invite the top choices to campus for a two -day interview. Other committees I have belonged to include: Study Abroad Committee, Advisory Committee, and Committee on Athletics. Internationally, I am first -vice President for GEMELA (currently candidate for President for 2009 -2011) and have been elected to a second term on the Board of Directors of the Association for Hispanic Classical Theater. On a more local level, I have just completed my first year on the Board of Directors at my condominium complex, Rossmoor Park. I have lived in Southern California for eight years (Seal Beach for 2.8). I take pride in my community, on a microcosmic and macrocosmic level, and want to help make the best decisions for its well - being, maintenance, and growth. Two additional qualifications that strengthen my candidacy are my excellent writing and bilingual skills (English and Spanish). I hope you will find me a reasonably qualified candidate with pertinent experience and a desire to work harmoniously toward a common good. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Sincerely, Dr. Bonnie L. Gasior RECEIVED SEP 2 3 2009 CITY CLERK Linda Devine CITY OF SEAL BEACH City Clerk Dear Linda: Attached is a letter from Bonnie Gasior.
